Fairly new to 9front and Plan 9.? Using 9front and set "service=cpu" but rio doesn't start.? I've tried adding screenrc to /rc/bin/cpurc and /cfg/$sysname/cpustart but gives me errors on /dev/draw.

This is expected. CPU servers typically don't have any reason to run
rio. Mine don't even have monitors attached (usually).

If you compare /rc/bin/cpurc and /rc/bin/termrc you'll see that the
vga device (#v) is bound only in /rc/bin/termrc. You can arrange
this in /rc/bin/cpustart, before you include /rc/bin/screenrc, like so:
bind -a '#v' /dev >/dev/null >[2=1]

A cpu server may not have a display (i.e. uses a serial console). rio runs
fine on any cpu server; your draw device determines where the display is.

Yes, of course. That was sloppy writing on my part. What I should have said
was:
"CPU servers typically don't have any reason to run rio on a local draw
device."

I don't even bother including the draw device and hangers-on in cpu servers.
